“Inside Business Report” show to feature New Series: "Medical Minutes"

Posted on August 17th, 2010

The producers of "Inside Business Report" are pleased to announce a special series, "Medical Minutes", highlighting the profound impact of science and technology in medicine and health care.

The advances are growing exponentially. Breakthrough medical technologies are able to detect diseases earlier and offer new, more effective treatment options for leading causes of disability and mortality, such as heart disease, cancer and other illnesses. Advances in device miniaturization and nanotechnology, molecular and gene-based diagnostics, information technology, artificial organs and tissue engineering promise to provide innovative solutions to some of the most persistent and debilitating health care problems. Over the years, medical technology innovations have led to decreases in the number of disabled Americans, increases in outpatient and minimally invasive surgical procedures, and shorter hospital stays.

And yet, despite the costliest system of healthcare in the world, the American healthcare industry ranks frustratingly low on a number of basic health-related measures. How can this be? "Inside Business Report" investigates and searches for solutions to this enigma.
